This federal contract award, valued at $204,402.00, was issued by the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command to prime contractor Laurel Technologies Partnership (doing business as DRS Laurel Technologies), a subsidiary of Italian aerospace company Leonardo SPA's Aircraft Division. The contract is a firm fixed price purchase order for the procurement of DRS VME IRIS Processors, which are components required to be compatible in form, fit, and function with the Navy's joint capabilities. No set-aside was used for this acquisition, which was issued under Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
As part of this award, Laurel Technologies subcontracted a portion of the work to Product Development Associates, Inc., an engineering and integration firm that has previously supported Laurel Technologies and other major defense contractors on federal projects. Laurel Technologies holds several indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicles with the Navy and Marine Corps, including the SeaPort Next Generation (NxG) multiple-award contract, a $4.1 billion CANES IDIQ for enterprise IT hardware and services, and IDIQ contracts for ordnance engineering and communications systems.
